From a SunWorld article:
nmap -- Perhaps the most versatile and widely-used tool for penetration
testing today. Offering a wide range of port-scanning techniques, this utility
will report which ports are open, who owns each process, which service is
typically assigned to the port, the probability of a TCP sequence prediction
attack, and more. Another useful feature of nmap is its ability to remotely
"fingerprint" a machine's operating system. This utility has become
the penetration tester's Swiss Army Knife.

- No configuration is required for nmap
- You should probably not leave this package lying around on your system.
If anyone manages to break in, they will have a powerful tool for analyizing
your internal network, or launching scans against other networks you will be
blamed for. I suggest you put this package on a utilities disk, loading it
only when necessary, and deleting it
from your system when you're done using it.
